Payroll/HR Systems

Effective Jan. 1, 2025, the State of Delaware’s minimum wage will increase from $13.25 to $15.00. The Payroll office will automatically update any employee whose hourly rate is currently below the new minimum wage. If an employee is already at or above the new minimum wage, no action will be taken.

The University of Delaware will be mailing 2024 W-2 Forms by January 31, 2025. If you have consented to receive your W-2 Form electronically, it can now be accessed via the W-2 Web View.

The New Supplemental Pay Webform has combined the S-Contract and Graduate Non-Contract Pay (GNCP) into one form. The overall goal is to create a better user experience, introduce smarts to reduce the number of errors and streamline routing.

Please review the following job aids to learn more about the new form.

Employees may elect to receive their 2024 W-2 forms electronically. Employers must comply with specific IRS regulations to use electronic W-2's and employees must provide their consent to receive an electronic W-2 instead of a paper copy. If you have already submitted your consent for 2024, you do not need to take further action. You can view/submit your consent using the W-2 Electronic Consent Form
There are many benefits to having your W-2 statement sent electronically, including:

• Providing easy and early access to your W-2 through Web Views
• Eliminating the chance of the W-2 getting lost and protecting your information from theft
• Support the University of Delaware Green Sustainability Initiative.
• Reducing the University’s costs by cuting back on printing and mailing forms

If you have any questions regarding this notice or your W-2 Statement, contact the Payroll Department.

Employees working remotely outside of the State of Delaware should review their state tax withholdings and consult with their tax advisor to determine if they need to update their W4 Form. Delaware nonresidents working remotely may be over withholding their Delaware State taxes but owe more taxes to their home state, and might not be eligible for state income tax credit paid to Delaware on the salary paid during that period. In that case, they will need to increase their home state withholdings (this option is available for MD & PA residents) or pay the taxes directly to the home state. They can use Schedule W, with their Delaware Nonresident Tax Return, to claim an allowance equivalent to the ratio of days worked outside of the State versus the total number of Delaware sourced employment working days.

Employees can adjust their DE State withholdings by completing the Online W4 form . Employees residing and working in the State of Maryland or Pennsylvania can use the same form to adjust those State’s tax withholdings.

Note: The University cannot give tax advice to individuals. Every Employee’s income tax situation is different and unique. Please consult with your tax advisor before making any changes to your federal and/ or state income tax withholdings.
